You WILL BE MISSED Butch. WE WERE CLASSMATES AT DAWN GRADE SCHOOL. Many GOOD TIMES TOGEHER.
Sorry for your lost to all your families. Thoughts, prayers and memories for all of you.
Last talked with Butch in latter 2022, everything was okay; we had great talk of old memories(school bus rides and all) plus happy times. Sorry for the sudden lost, wishing best for the family members. As the Apostle Paul says in Acts 24:15, “there shall be a resurrection.”
Pat was a great person. He will be missed by many!
Pat was a long time friend of the family to everyone in my family.
He was always enjoyed and welcome and will be missed dearly.
I never knew his name. We live up the street from him for the last few years and this man was like a beacon of friendliness in our neighborhood, especially if we were walking our dogs. He was Sunshine and Daisy’s best friend and always had a treat for them as he scootered around the neighborhood. I knew something was up when I saw his scooters for sale in his yard today. I had to go looking online. The description in his obituary describing him as “scootering to heaven” was my clue I’d found the news I dreaded to find. I hope whomever bought that red scooter continues with the neighborhood jaunts. I’m sorry I didn’t see it in time or that person might have been me.
You made your mark. You will be missed. Even if we didn’t know your name until today.
You will sure be missed Pat. I appreciated your friendship and quips. God speed
I knew Butch back in the 1960s. Have no complaints. I am sorry for Connie and all the others who loved him.
Stacy Sloan wrote a beautiful commemorative.
Sunshine and Daisy will surely miss him as well.
Dear Anderson Family, we are so sorry to hear of Butch passing, we send prayers and many memories to you, his family
I knew Butch way back in high school in the 50’s. He was a great friend and remained so through the years. I occasionally met him when he was driving for Jamison and he even came down to the Lake of the Ozarks when we were living down there. He and I had round abouts when I was dating, and he wanted to, a certain girl.in high school. Lol. All my best wishes and condolences to Connie, Jim and all of Pat’s family in their very sad loss. I’ll miss talking to you and will never forget you. RIP, Butch, RIP.
